Ana Navarro: Some Conservatives Oppose Amnesty Because They're 'Racist'
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | January 30, 2014 | Tony Lee

Posted on 01/30/2014 8:39:38 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

So-called Republican Ana Navarro told a left-of-center outlet this week that she believes some people on the right oppose amnesty because they are racist.

Navarro, the former "strategist" to liberal Republicans like John McCain and Jon Huntsman, has been elevating her profile among the mainstream press in the so-called "Acela corridor" by bashing conservatives, including former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX).

Though there is often hardly a difference between the mainstream media and left-of-center outlets like Talking Points Memo, the Huffington Post, or BuzzFeed, Navarro now wants to be adored by them as well. There is no easier way to do that than to imply that those who are opposed to amnesty are racists, even though the primary argument against amnesty has been that it would lower the wages of American workers of all races, ethnicities, and backgrounds--particularly those in black and Hispanic communities who have suffered in President Barack Obama's economy.

Navarro said that there are "certainly" some "racist people" on the right who oppose amnesty primarily because of race. She said that she wants to "think it’s a minority and that’s not what’s going to decide the immigration debate.”(continued)

There is one simple answer to race baiting. Read this ten times so you can recite it whenever someone accuses a certain category of people of being racists:

“As horrible as being a racist is, there is one type of person who is even more despicable, and that is one who believes he or she has the moral authority to look into the hearts of entire groups of people and delare them racist in an attempt to excise paltry political gain. Those who prejudge others in this way truly represent the crudest, lowest form of racism.”

To condem LEGAL immigrants to SLAVE wages is RACIST.

That is what happens when you flood the market with cheap labor.

That will be the result of granting amnesty to 20 MILLION ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

These people are projecting their own racial prejudices and are only pushing amnesty because of their own “white guilt.”

If our country was being overrun by blond, blue eyed Russian illegal aliens who were gaming the welfare system, then I’d be just as pissed about them as I am about the ones coming from south of the border.

If being a loyal American means that I get called a racist, then I am a proud racist.

Piss on these race baiting America haters.

I have posted a number of comments on Ana Navarro here for a year now: a chubby annoying Hispanic lib billed by the networks as 'GOP strategist' on their Sunday shows,

McCain says they are friends,
she started on CNN as political analysis.
She hates conservatives and does a very weak act as playing Republican opposition to Dems, which is why she gets on. .

Some La Raza activists refuse to get real jobs.

Obviously there is a race angle when an overweight hispanic tells non Hispanics they are lazy and won’t do real work.

For these Commie Alinsky practicioners, there is no argument against their agenda. If 2 + 2 = 4, they would say that was a racist conclusion. They don’t operate on logic, they operate on demonization of the opponent. Remember, the ends justifies the means.

excuse my spelling.
practicioners = practitioners (the correct spelling)

A case where something incorrect equals something correct.
